Childcare Funding help

So my LO is under 2 and goes to nursery 2 full days a week. Me and husband both worked and got the 30 government funded hours. However my husband has recently lost his job of 8 years due to the company going under.

The worst part is he lost his job the day before I gave birth to our second child. So now I'm on rubbish maternity pay and he's got no earnings.

I'm wondering if we still entitled to any funded hours or not? I just don't want my LO to lose his place as obviously my husband is trying to get a job and when I go back to work we will need the childcare.

Has anyone been in this situation? Is there a grace period? Tyia!

Generally, the grace period is up until the term is up! Call your nursery and they can inform you properly

You’d still be entitled to 15 hours as you’re still employed during maternity leave x

I get 15 hours for my first as she is now 2. My husband works, I don’t.

Has anyone else had issues with their friends that aren't pregnant or have kids?

I have a friend at work and we've become really close over the years. But ever since I become pregnant she just doesn't understand anything I'm going through which is fine except for the fact that the past few days I have been exhausted physically and socially. We have been helping another friend out for about a month now and we've had to keep him entertained as he's going through a rough time right now and it's drained me socially . my friend at work is frustrated because I'm not talking a lot and I'm exhausted and she doesn't understand why and I'm just curious if anybody else has had issues with friends that are not going to the same thing or have gone through the same thing as you connecting with you because she's literally mad at me. She stopped talking to me at work today and I just don't understand what to do.

STD rates and body count

Saw an interesting video and I’d love to hear everyone’s thoughts on this topic!

So std rates are at an all time high as we all know. Do you think the mindset that body count doesn’t matter has contributed to the significant increase of STDs and HIV?

Secondly if someone says that body count doesn’t matter do you believe they are less likely to practice safe sex compared to people who believe in more traditional values?

I can’t put all the combinations in the poll so feel free to comment just yes/no answers
